So I was matched up with my Random against a Terran in their own backyard that is terran quadrant. Luckily I rolled Protoss as they have their own ways of dealing with terran favoured maps: the lovely four-gate all-in with a proxy pylon.
So I send out my nice little probe in order to hide it in their backyard, what proves to be somewhat problematic because I scout them last. (Me being Top-Left and them Bottom-Left)

No Pylon for me So you think you are safe?
But looking at the map closely I have a devious idea and do not change my plans, still chronoboosting my Warpgate tech.

At this point, I wonder if this will actually work?

Oh god, that just doesn't feel quite right.

Fortunately, he isn't too offended. :D

Lol that's pretty funny. I bet terran was all happy he denied your proxy pylon and was like WTF when all your units came in. Well, that's how I'd feel. =P

4 gate allin all day, every day.
TvP sure is fun on ladder!

Dude you should be ashamed of yourself!
Not only that you used a lame cheese, but you blogged about it like it was something worth bragging about! Where is your manner?
But you know what's totally unforgivable?
He played JustForFun How could you cheese someone with such name?

4 gate allin is so much fun, esp if you have managed to sneak in a pylon in the terrans base.

Delta Quadrant is terran favoured (in TvP)? O.o

I always have so much trouble against P on Delta.
The only race that's generally alright to fight against there is another Terran and Zerg as you can get some nice tank lines up and around.

I don't think its too bad PvT myself, but since there are so many pathways and rather wide areas, I think tanks are not as strong as say Steppes or LT.
TvZ for sure is in favour of Terran if you are beside each other, if its cross positions, I'd say its pretty even that way. (Blizz seriously doesnt know how to make a balanced TvZ map my god). You can slowly tank push to the other Z's base pretty easily, with even a gold on the way.

Thank you so much for this blog, now I'll know to scout for this.
Hm or wait, should I be cursing your name for revealing it to all P users...

I had this done to me PvP. Ever since, I've been abusing it. Lots of raged commenced.

Haha, I found things like this on some 2v2 maps. Like on Discord, if you go to one of the side expansions on the other side of them map (high ground side expansion), you can pylon at a certain corner there, and you will BARELY have pylon power in their main, next to one of their Mineral lines. Also you can do pretty much the same thing on Tarsonis Assault, but I hate that map anyway.

im only toss one third of my games but it's definitely something you should be on the lookout for. or another evidence of bad map design. or an intended gimmick to add a twist. however you want to look at it.
